How to check if a remote user exists on a SaltStack state

Question

I'm writing a SaltStack state, and I need to know if a remote user exists to do or don't do something.

I need something like this:

{% if user foo exists %}
  do something
{% endif %}

I've tried with user.present, user.absent, but nothing of this does what I need.

Someone have done this, but with remote groups: SaltStack: Do ... if group "foo" exists on remote-host

Is this possible? Thanks

Answer 1

Salt有模块列出所有用户或获取用户信息

您可以按照 groups post

中的相同方式使用它

对于列出远程系统中用户的模块，请参阅：

https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/modules/all/salt.modules.useradd.html#salt.modules.useradd.list_users

Answer 2

您可以查看用户是否＆＃39; foo＆＃39;存在以下代码：

{% set all_users = salt['user.list_users']() %}
{% if 'foo' in all_users %}
  do something
{% endif %}
